And now for today's Sunday Smooch from Sue MacKay

Plastic surgeon Olivia Coates-Clark ended her affair with Dr Zachary Wright before she could get hurt. But when a chance encounter brings them back together she finds herself considering breaking her one rule: not to give in to her desire for Zac! Can Zac prove to her that some rules are worth breaking?

Scene set-up: Olivia and Zac have gone back at his apartment for a drink after a charity auction Olivia organised to raise funds for their colleague who requires treatment overseas. One of the prizes at the auction was a trip for two to Fiji and another mischievous colleague bought it to give to Olivia and Zac. They're avoiding talking about the trip and what it means, and instead drift into a conversation about their families that neither is comfortable with.

‘You
mentioned one brother.’ Olivia asked him.

Was that longing in her voice? Zac wondered. Hard to tell from her
face. ‘Mark.
He’s married with two kids. I only get to see them at Christmas and birthdays.’

Olivia
picked at an invisible spot on the counter. ‘That’s incredibly sad.’

‘Yep.’
He made himself busy getting mugs from the cupboard and teabags from the
pantry.

She
lifted her head and locked her blue eyes on him, suddenly back to being in
control. ‘Think I’ll head back to the hotel. I don’t really want tea. Or
anything.’ She slipped off the stool and turned towards the doorway.
‘Goodnight, Zac.’

With
little thought he reached for her, caught her wrist and gently tugged her
close. With a finger under her chin he tilted her head back so he could gaze down
into her eyes. And felt his head spinning with wanting her.

Olivia’s
eyes widened and her chin rose further as her mouth opened slightly.

Zac
was lost. Any resistance or logical thinking disappeared as he leaned closer to
place his mouth over hers. As he tasted her, the heat and need he’d kept tamped
down most of the night exploded into a rainbow of hot colours. Olivia. She was
in his arms, her mouth on his, her tongue dancing with his. Olivia.

Slim
arms wound around his neck, pulling his body closer to hers. He felt her rise
onto tiptoe, knew the moment when her hips pressed against his obvious desire.
Those breasts he’d been fantasising about all night flattened against his
chest, turning him into a molten pool of need. His hands spread around her waist
to lift her onto the stool, where she immediately wrapped her legs around his
thighs.

This is
what I’ve missed so damned much. We are fire on fire. Feeding each other.
Consuming the oxygen.

She
tasted wonderful, bringing more erotic memories back to him. Making new ones.

Lifting
his mouth, he began trailing kisses over her jaw, down her neckline, on towards
her deep cleavage. When she whimpered he continued while lifting his gaze to
her face, where he recognised the same fiery awakening racing along his veins.

Her
fingers kneaded his scalp as she pushed her breasts higher to give him more
access with his tongue. She wasn’t wearing a bra. Of course she wasn’t. That
dress had clung to every curve and outlined her shape perfectly; including her
breasts, those peaks now hard against his mouth and hand.

‘It’s
been so long,’ she murmured in a low voice that spelt sex. Her hands fumbled
with the buttons of his shirt, finally pushed it open, and then her palms were
on his skin, smoothing and teasing as only Olivia could do.

The
memories that he’d lived on for all those long months apart rapidly became
reality. He hadn’t enhanced any of them. This was how it had been between them.
Oh, hell.
There was nothing quite like making out with this woman. She knew the buttons
to push, remembered what he most enjoyed, and if she wasn’t careful would have
him coming long before he’d pleasured her.

That
wasn’t happening.

‘Breaking All Their Rules is set in Auckland and on a beautiful Fijian island where I've stayed and yes, had a romantic week with my man.

Come back next Sunday, when the winner of today's giveaway will be announced!
